Mattito's in Frisco and the Art Show...

So the other night, Bevin and I decided to hit the town and go to an art show in Frisco. A friend of hers from work knows one of the artists in the show (Jeb Matulich, you can search for his blog, Junky Trinkets). He does fantastic work! It was a pleasant change of pace from our usual evenings as of late. The Frisco City Hall Atrium is an impressive structure, newly built with all the ammenities. The artwork is on all five floors and will be on display for the better part of a year. If you're out this way anytime soon and want to do something with a touch of class, check out the show. You won't be disappointed. And yes, I mangaged to go through the whole display without touching anything or knocking it off the wall... mostly. I got a little close to a few pieces while admiring the brush strokes. Bevin kept me in line though!

And now for dinner...


Although the finger foods at the show were wonderful, it just wasn't enough for Dan! We had plans to eat at Mattito's there in the square. I've always heard about it, and thought we'd give the place a try. 2 Margarita's (one with salt, one without), cheese and beef enchilada dinner, seafood chile relleno with raisins and pecans, and many chips and salsa later....well, you get the picture. It was good....very good.... Dan was impressed with their version of a chile relleno and how they put the raisins on the top. The only difficult thing to manage at the end of the night was the high sticker shock on the margaritas. 6.95 a piece for each house margarita! I know the both of us were shocked to see that. Next time we'll go during happy hour if we want to drink.

Mid-way through the battle...but Dan will not be defeated by this "quaint" sized meal. Notice the raisins! Yum!

When we left for the evening, we could imagine Ruby was very anxious to see us and hurried home. I can speak for Dan when I say this...a night of culture can do you good. I feel fancy!
